Changes:

1.0 - January 1, 2004
- fixed many texture misalignments
- tweaked and modified many textures
- added hi-res id badge (thanks to Calhoun from the HIT forums for pointing
  out that barney has level 3, not level 2 access)
- removed vest clips on chest from texture, to prevent them showing if texture
  becomes misaligned, and remodeled the clips
- replaced tie texture
- added animations that previously only had placeholders, and modified them
  to include keyframes for all fingers
- barnabus:
 - heavily mixed and modified many textures
 - stole m4 from tundra_cool's barnabus
 - remodeled dent in helmet (now looks more obvious, and has cracks)

1.1 - January 25, 2004
- added HEV Barney for certain Sven Coop maps
- modified torso hitboxes to behave like the helmet when shot with 9mm/shotgun
  rounds (i.e. is bullet-proof), based on idea by tundra_cool

1.5 - July 3, 2004
- replaced body mesh with the one from Half-Life: Decay from the PS2 disc,
  now much higher poly count (approx. 3000 polys total with head and weapon)
- added proper smoothing groups to highlight some sharp edges (look at the
  model in HLMV
  in smooth shaded mode to see what I mean)
- removed/replaced all textures from other games
- redesigned ID tag text, based it on one of the HD pack Barney textures
  (I found one that was almost legible)
- retouched many textures, some quite heavily
- added more detail to the belt
- tweaked UV maps somewhat
